Description
Overview
The Diatex FASTER Silent blade is a wet bridge-saw blade for ceramic-slab fabrication where cutting speed and edge quality are priorities. This listing is the 16-inch silent-core version, suitable for straight and miter work.
Features
- Made in Italy.
- Silent-core construction for reduced noise and vibration.
- Manufacturer reports feed rates above 2 linear meters per minute on 6, 12 and 20 mm slabs and tool life beyond 600 linear meters; results depend on the application.
Specifications
- Blade: FASTER Silent
- Size: 16 in.
- Use: Wet cutting
- Typical cut types: Straight and miter
Size Options
- 16"
Applications
Use for ceramic-slab fabrication, including Laminam, Neolith, Dekton, Lapitec, Infinity, Sapienstone, Atlas Plan, ABK Stone, Italstone, RAK Slabs and GEOLUXE. Match the process to the exact slab and saw rather than treating high-speed performance as a fixed setting for every job.
Selection and Use
- The listing recommends straight and miter cutting on 10–20 mm slabs, in a single pass at a minimum feed of 1.5 m/min; confirm the appropriate machine setup and slab guidance before cutting.
- Sharpen/dress the blade after each 100 linear meters as recommended for this listing.
- Provide the required water cooling throughout the cut.
- Diatex reports processing-time reductions above 50% for the FASTER range; actual savings, finish and service life depend on machine and material conditions.
